they don't have lisa rubin on speed dial like we luckily do. how many americans do you think are watching all of these trials, and basically just rooting for their side regardless of the evidence? >> that's a great question. i think probably those who are paying attention to these, it's a predominating view people looking at, i think they're looking at it through an election context, a political context, and it's a sad state of affairs but it's also, it's such a noise thing at this point. there are so many cases, so many complexities. a lot of the stuff is pretty turgid to begin with and hard for people to follow, i think the basic contours of this are the broad trump strategy no matter what the case, is, it seems certainly with judge cannon, he has a willing partner, and some of the hedging steps that she was doing to rule two different circumstances, was just designed to drag this out. and it seemed completely unworkable, and obviously i'm not a lawyer, but it certainly didn't seem to make sense on that front. i think at this point, it's peop

lisa rubin is following this for us. this is fast and furious, his third loss in 24 hours. tell us more about this ruling. >> this is one of the first losses before judge aileen cannon. in some ways, a significant one in the sense that she's saying at this stage, she is not going to dismiss counts 1 through 32 which charge willful retention in an unauthorized way. but what i want to point out to you and our viewers is actually the second part of this very short three-page order is far more significant because that's where judge cannon is saying to the extent that i asked both sides for jury instructions on the presidential records act issue that the president raised and to the extent the special counsel asked me to rule on that promptly, and exercise their appellate rights i'm not going to do that. to the extent the special counsel demands an anticipatory, prior to a charge conference, that's where the jury instructions are hammered out between the parties and the judge, and prior to the presentation of trial defenses in evidence, the court declines that demand as, and here

. >>> joining us as promised, msnbc legal correspondent, lisa rubin, i want to talk about the witness list. who do we have on it? any surprises? >> i mean, i think the biggest surprise is not a surprise necessarily to someone like me who has been following the trial closely, it's madeline wester house, trump's personal secretary in the white house for two years, and then she left, somewhat unceremoniously, after having an off the record dinner with reporters where she got a little bit too talkative about trump's relationships with his daughters. she left not of her own volition. why is she in this trial, that centers upon the hush money payments to stormy daniels. it's theoretically because she put paperwork in front of donald trump that has to do with the cover up and the crime here. >> what sort of paperwork? >> it could be checks, e-mails, documentation, of for example the legal invoices that are among those things alleged to be the false business documents here at the heart of the felony charges. we're not sure exactly what it is. i'll remind you in october of 2017, one of the che
